Hey, guys.
Brian Tong here with CNET.com at South by Southwest 2011.
Wanna show you a cool toy we have here.
This is Disney's second screen app with the TRON: Legacy Blu-ray and what this is, it's a completely free app and what it does is it talks to the TRON: Legacy Blu-ray disc which you have to purchase but it gives you an amazing amount of content on the second screen so what it does is there's an audio sync that talks to the movie so while you're watching the movie, you can see relevant content on the second screen, navigate through it, look at renders, images, director's notes,
so what I can do here is I can scrub through the timeline and see the different content, but when I wanna go back to what is relevant on the movie, I just hit the sync button and then we're back showing the content that you wanna see.
It really elevates what you're doing and it gives you more information, more interactivity on a second screen.
So there you have it, a first look at Disney's second screen app for TRON: Legacy, the Blu-ray.
